Harbor: Lecco continues to coach & keep Oscar, in addition to Xu Xin and reinforcements

Reporter Cheng Shan reported that the start time of the new season of the Chinese Super League has not been determined, and the teams in the Chinese Super League have adjusted their holidays according to their own conditions.

In the past, the Spring Festival holiday of the Shanghai Harbor Team was not very long, and it also encountered a situation where there was no holiday in the New Year because of the AFC Champions League. But this year's holiday is a bit long, after returning from the FA Cup final (January 10), because there is no league, cup task, coupled with the national team to transfer a number of players, and borrowed Harbor's training ground in Century Park, so the Harbor team did not conduct intensive training. Until the end of the Spring Festival holiday, the first-line players have not received the team's "going to work" notice.

After last season's matches, head coach Lecco set off for a sabbatical in Europe. The league and cup competitions have not won the championship, and Lecco, whose coaching ability has been questioned by the outside world, expressed his dissatisfaction when summarizing the performance of the whole season, but he also said that he hopes to do better in the new season with the whole team. Lecco had previously signed a 1+1 contract with the Harbour team, and before leaving Shanghai, he talked with the technical director of the national football team, the Belgian Chris, about some of the team's technical aspects. It's clear that after a season at work, Lecco himself felt that he hadn't fully realized his philosophy and brought it to the harbor.

Previously, there was news that Lecco may leave the harbor, but according to the latest news, Lecco and the harbor team have maintained a good cooperative relationship, and recently, Lyco will return to Shanghai, and after completing the isolation, he will lead the team to prepare for the new season.

In mid-January, the Brazilian media exposed the news of Oscar's contact with Barca, but because financial problems hindered the transfer progress, Oscar expressed his willingness to stay in the harbor.

On the eve of the Spring Festival, Oscar took his son Caio to the new home of the harbor, and the professional football stadium in Pudong, Shanghai has now been built and the turf of the stadium has been maintained, waiting for the opening of the Chinese Super League. Many people told Oscar that the stadium is beautiful, but due to the epidemic, the home-and-away system of the Chinese Super League cannot be implemented, and the team has never used this venue. On Jan. 30, Oscar, accompanied by staff, toured the home and away dressing rooms, the warm-up area, and the stands and boxes on the upper floors of the stadium, including two training grounds in the outfield, "This is an incredible stadium, and it should be one of the best stadiums I have ever played." I'm looking forward to the opportunity to play on this pitch next season. Oscar said.

Oscar, who spent six Spring Festivals in Shanghai, has long been accustomed to everything in the city, and this year's Spring Festival holiday he and his family did not choose to return to China or vacation abroad, but chose to celebrate the festival on the spot. Caio has a Chinese nanny who teaches him a fluent Chinese, and when he goes out to order food during the Spring Festival holiday and meets a waiter who doesn't speak English, his son becomes Oscar's translator. At the end of the European winter window, Oscar obviously has no possibility of leaving the harbor, as the first star of the Chinese Super League, his stay is undoubtedly the happiest thing for the harbor.

The information about Shandong Taishan's xu xin joining the harbor has become clear, Xu Xin has indeed been in contact with the harbor, is improving the signing process, and if not surprisingly, when the harbor team is re-concentrated, the club will announce the news of new signings to the outside world. In addition to Xu Xin, The Harbour is currently in contact with several other domestic players in the hope of reinforcing their strengths.

During the vacation, most of the players in the Harbor team did not leave Shanghai, in addition to gathering with their families and attending friends' weddings, many people paid attention to the national football competition and the Asian Cup match of the women's football team during the Spring Festival. The team did not begin formal intensive training, but some players found a conditional field to practice physical fitness and touching the ball on their own. Players such as Li Shenglong and He Xi also played against some local amateur club teams in Shanghai.

It is reported that the training time of the harbor will be after February 21, when several national team players will complete the 14+7 isolation, and the team personnel will be more organized.
